What would you do with Goodison if we get our new ground?

[Whistlin' Dixie]

....I suspect a supermarket chain will want the land. It's well situated in a large residential area with relatively easy access.

It's more or less a given that's what will happen, mate.

 

[Bluebonic]

Turn it into a massive abbatoir that specialises in rendering down rotting carcasses, so that the other shower spend the rest of eternity gagging at the smell!

 

[TommyDavo]

Gonna move in meself. South facing garden towards the park

 

[COYB]

Under 23's new stadium

 

[Tubey]

Whatever happens to it I hope they leave enough of a public space for a monument that we can visit to remember what it was.

 

[The binman chronicles]

Good work! That's exactly what I was thinking, alright maybe a tiny bit smaller than I expected and wouldn't it be good to put in really small text right at the bottom "...and so did Dixie Dean, Alex Young, Alan Ball, Neville Southall et al" but other than that it's perfect and a fitting tribute to 130ish years at Goodison.

 

[SimonB]

Don't the RS usually have our cast offs when we find somewhere better to play?

 

[Nil Satis Niasse Optimum]

Gift the land to Hibbert by way of apology for the disgraceful way we didn't continue to hand him new contracts despite him never playing for years.

 

[glorydaze]

Give it to the community, whatever it's worth won't make any difference to our finances, and let them decide.

 

[thevorpalblade]

Me, too, thinks it'll be sold to highest bidder. Housing. Ball Way, Southall Boulevard, Dean Street, Kendal Fly Over, Harvey Underpass...

Although street signage would need to be v high or engraved (or other): otherwise those street signs might find themselves adorning the rooms of Blues homes (you naughty scousers).

 

[cooperman]

What about all the ashes around the pitch?

 

[tim gabbott]

Keep it for our trophy room . Once the chairman finds out were his pockets our. Plus surely it's listed as a burial ground for the arteta money

 

[ste d' indica]

Sake lads, I've been through this twice already!

I'm very glad someone's raised this. It's vital that in the excitement of a potential move we don't disregard over a century of ours and football's heritage. I'd like to see something echoing Goodison remain and helping to bring new life to that area as well, affordable housing, commemorative space, a home for the David France collection, St Luke's, The Wilmslow, The Blue Dragon should all be preserved.
But most of all, I think the greatest gift we could bestow on the site of our former home, the sacred patch of land that holds so many memories, ecstatic and exasperating would be this..
The base of a new landmark for the city, a majestic tower rising hundreds of feet into the air, illuminated in Royal Blue, with a giant, gently flashing arrow pointed directly at another former home, emblazoned with the words: "TITHEADS --->"

Yeah, I think I'd like that. I'd like that a lot.

 

[Neiler]

Build a big catapult and Fire buckets of blue paint over the park.

 

[Taff]

I heard the land is only worth around £1m and that the club would just give it back to the City. No idea what would happen from there....Affordable housing sounds like a likely option
